Always get the biggest you can fit into the given area as all to often the tale is...............I wished I had got a bigger one!!


QuoteWhat options are available for glazing and what is best,

Glass every time I wouldn't dream of using polycarbonate it goes brittle opaque and is expensive to replace

Quotewhat equipment would i need inside it benches etc.

This is all dependant on what you want to grow in it.

Most often you will find that benches are only required during the propagation period in early spring then you grow things such as tomatoes in summer. 

So your benches must be removable e.g 'pasting tables or something similar but more robust!

Hi, bought a couple of greenhouses in the last 2 years,one from ad trader and one from ebay (both 8x6) £25/£70 (with staging). It's a bit of a faff collecting and re-erecting but for the price you can't go wrong really. Have looked into new ones but they appear very expensive to what you can pick up second hand. Whatever size you have you always seem to fill it!
